Everyone is different. Your age, lifestyle and health will all play a factor in how you experience results. 98% of participants in our clinical trials noticed significant improvements within 12 weeks, if capsules are taken consistently daily.
If you’re recovering from surgery, going through the menopause, older than 60 years of age or have unique health issues, then it can take longer than 90 days for the results to become visible.
Prepared to a medical grade and protected by our patented capsule, this rigorously-tested combination of Ingenious ingredients consistently reaches the point of maximum absorption in your body – the small intestine. Ingenious products never contain unnecessary additives or harmful fillers.
Our signature, multi award-winning combination consists of sustainable marine collagen, a unique hyaluronic acid profile and nature’s most powerful antioxidant, natural astaxanthin.

For targeted and consistent absorption, our patented capsules (3 capsules per daily dosage) are designed to survive until it reaches your small intestine for true efficacy.
Withstanding digestive processes to protect the ingredients inside, our patented capsule delivers our Collagen+ formulation directly to your small intestine for consistent and maximum absorption.
Our independently assessed clinical trial put Collagen+ to the most rigorous scientific test; under the same level of testing that a pharmaceutical product would undergo. After 12 weeks of clinical measurements, the results were clear, users reported significant improvements to skin elasticity, hydration, lines and wrinkles.
While most other supplements merely meet food standards, Ingenious production processes go beyond to meet the European and UK Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). While this is more expensive it means that Ingenious ingredients, including our patented capsule, works for you — not against you.
Our medical-grade, rigorously tested combinations never contain fillers, flow agents, preservatives, flavourings and other packing agents. But we believe that compromising on quality should never be an option, especially when it comes to what people put into their body. It’s another reason you’ll only ever find Ingenious in capsule form, as liquid supplements contain the highest number of anti-nutrient chemicals, used to stabilise and mask flavours, textures and colour.
Ingenious provides a precise amount of active ingredients at the exact point your body can use them best. Our patented capsule protects the rigorously-tested combination inside by withstanding digestive processes and reaching the site of maximum absorption in the small intestine. Getting to exactly where your body can use Ingenious best, we consistently deliver pure excellence where it matters, for enhanced wellness.

Collagen is an important component of our skin, bones, muscles, ligaments and other tissues. It’s 30% of all the protein and it’s 75% of skin. Collagen is one of the many components in your body, but as you live life, it’s harder to access and create it.
Collagen can only be derived from animal sources. Supplemental collagen is mainly derived from cows or fish, with some from chickens or eggs. Plant-based collagen does not, and cannot, exist.
When we age, we lose our ability to produce collagen as efficiently as we could before the age of 25. The rate at which this ability reduces is about 1.5% every year from our mid-twenties onwards. This leads to visible signs of ageing and loss of radiance in our skin. Our hair and nails become less strong, whilst our joints become stiffer, and we heal less quickly from injuries.
In early life there is no significant difference in collagen density between males and females. Once they reach their early 20s, males tend to have a higher collagen density which contributes to their typically thicker and firmer skin. After 25 collagen production declines in both sexes. However, women tend to experience a more rapid decrease in collagen density compared to men. This is partly due to hormonal changes, particularly the decline in oestrogen levels during and after menopause.
In the human body, as in the rest of nature, collagen exists as a long chain triple helix which cannot be absorbed without being broken down. This breakdown process is normally undertaken by the action of the stomach which breaks collagen into its constituent amino acids which can then be absorbed in the small intestine. Unfortunately, this action also destroys the nature of the collagen.
Most collagen supplements use collagen peptides, also known as hydrolysed collagen. The hydrolysation process breaks the collagen molecule into small chains of amino acids (bi or tri-peptides) which in theory can be absorbed directly into the blood stream. However, the digestive action of the stomach will also degrade these collagen peptides before they arrive in the small intestine (where 90% of collagen absorption occurs). Despite what many claim, all unprotected collagen peptide based supplements – liquid, powder, capsules, or tablets – will be degraded before they reach the small intestine.
Ingenious focuses on delivering a consistent 627mg amount of collagen peptide – targeted to reach your small intestine in our patented capsule. Our supplements are able to pass through the stomach intact and travel to the small intestine; here the change in pH levels triggers the capsule to dissolve. To ensure that the marine collagen peptide is quickly absorbed once it is released into the small intestine, we use a peptide that weighs 2,000 Daltons or less, ideal for rapid absorption. This is less than half the size of the industry average which is 5,000 Daltons. The collagen peptide and the rest of the active ingredients are then absorbed through the small intestine directly into the bloodstream.
At Ingenious we do not use ultra-processed additives such as preservatives, flavours or fillers. Neither do we need to over-fill our capsules with collagen peptide, leaving space for other key active ingredients. We use just the right amount of collagen peptide to ensure you see stunning results, knowing every bit of it will be absorbed and utilised for firmer, smoother skin and overall vitality.
Both our patented capsule and the quality of our collagen gives Collagen+ and Active unparalleled levels of absorption which no other collagen supplement can match.
Collagen+ and Active uses the most superior grade of marine collagen peptide sourced responsibly from the skins of free-swimming Tilipia fish.
Hyaluronic Acid, also known as Hyaluron or HA is a gentle yet powerful, moisture-binding substance that occurs naturally in your body. It’s present in our skin, our inner connective tissue, between our joints and in our eyes. Its main purpose is to retain water, to keep everything well lubricated and maintain structural integrity.
HA exists naturally in almost every cell in the body. If you have sufficient HA in your body, your skin will feel soft and beautifully moisturised and the resulting elasticity will help protect against wrinkles forming. Your joints and body are more likely to feel supple and you should be able to bend and stretch with ease. However, HA has a half-life (the time it takes for the molecule to get broken down and excreted from the body) of less than 3 days in the main body and as little as one day in the skin. For this reason, it is imperative that the body continually replenish itself with HA. Unfortunately, as we age, we lose the ability to replace HA at the rate required which in part explains why age-related symptoms appear, our skin becomes drier and less elastic, and wrinkles start to form.
Fortunately, supplementing with HA can help resolve this loss.
Just one molecule of hyaluronic acid can bind 1,000 times its own weight in water, bringing superior strength and firmness to your skin.
As we age and our HA lubrication levels drop, the space between bones in our joints can reduce, leading to joint stiffness, aches and pain. Taking an HA supplement has been shown to help with joint health.
Hyaluronic Acid also plays a vital part in wound healing. It works by aiding the regulation of inflammation levels as well as sending signals to the body to construct more blood vessels in the wounded area.
HA is thought to help with chronic eye dryness which affects about 1 in 7 older adults. Contact lenses with slowly releasing HA are being developed. As HA is naturally present as a lubricant in the eye, having healthy levels are believed to be important in this area.
The profile of Ingenious’ hyaluronic acid is specifically designed for targeted results. It’s 20% more effective at keeping skin and tissue hydrated and plump than industry standard.
The hyaluronan used by Ingenious is a pioneering finely modulated Full Spectrum Hyaluronan Complex, able to deeply integrate into the biology of targeted tissues, matching skin, joints, muscle and other needs. All to maximise efficiency and work exactly where you need it.
The HA found in most supplements and creams consists of only one length of HA molecule. The Ingenious Hyaluronan Complex mimics the physiology of your body’s HA.
Astaxanthin is one of the most powerful antioxidants ever discovered and belongs to the carotenoid group of molecules. It is an incredible 6,000 times stronger than the better known antioxidant vitamin C.
As a powerful antioxidant, Astaxanthin has been shown to have many benefits when taken as a supplement; from skin repair, reducing wrinkles, repairing joints, improving eye health and even aiding the brain.
The benefits of astaxanthin are vast and astounding, that’s why we use it as a core ingredient in all of our supplements. For more information on the potential benefits of astaxanthin, read our blog ‘Amazing Astaxanthin’.
Astaxanthin is the main carotenoid pigment found in pink aquatic animals like salmon, and birds such as flamingos who feed upon the natural microalgae that produces astaxanthin. While this gives those animals their pink colouring, humans will not turn pink as a result of taking supplements containing astaxanthin.
Modern lifestyles put our bodies under attack from free radicals produced by UV rays, pollution, stress, smoking and poor nutrition. The damage caused by free radicals is a major cause of skin ageing which affects all layers of the skin, from the visible surface to the delicate deep layers where new skin is formed, destroying both collagen and hyaluronic acid.
Astaxanthin breaks down Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), or ‘free radicals’ that directly damage collagen fibres. By eliminating free radicals using natural astaxanthin, existing collagen will not be damaged, and neither will the making of new collagen.
A clinical trial undertaken on natural astaxanthin (the ingredient used in Ingenious formulation) revealed that taking 4mg of astaxanthin significantly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, skin roughness and skin redness after six weeks.
Further clinical studies also reveal how taking supplemental astaxanthin every day can help to improves eyesight, protects against types of ocular degeneration and help combat screen-induced eye fatigue. You can find more information about this topic in our blog post ‘Astaxanthin and Healthy Vision’.
Astaxanthin has been shown to exert a strong protective effect on the brain and has also been used to help treat and prevent diseases such Parkinson’s and Alzehimer’s. The human central nervous system (CNS) contains 100 billion neuronal cells and is vulnerable to oxidative stress and inflammation due to its low cellular renewal rate. Extensive studies have found that carotenoids such as astaxanthin, with its ability to lower rates of inflammation as well as fighting free radicals, can help to protect and preserve the central nervous system and enhance brain function.
The natural astaxanthin used in Ingenious products is derived from a micro-algae sustainably sourced from a Swedish archipelago. The process to extract this astaxanthin operates in a carbon negative closed circuit system, with the thermal energy produced heating a local town outside of Stockholm, Sweden.
